Title: Wiring Electrical Towel Rail Post by dale pwl on Feb 13th, 2018, 10:24pm Hi, Looking for some advice. I am hoping to fit a heated towel rail into my bathroom. I don't have central heating so this will need to be heated with an electrical element. I am looking to install this myself. It is a 250W element, and will be located in zone 2 of the bathroom. There will be a blanking socket, and a fused switch on the wall outside of the bathroom. Essentially i need advice about wiring this into the circuit? Do i need to wire this as a new circuit into the RCD unit or can i wire this as a spur from an existing circuit? Thanks |
